Great Evolution: I Exclusively Possess Earth's Six Supreme Opportunities
Chapter 44, codenamed "Shennong"
Su Bai took a step forward, and the ripples in the space behind him completely subsided.
That secret realm that swallowed up a reclusive family vanished from the world completely, as if it had never existed.
He returned to that desolate, poisonous swamp.
Unlike when he came, he did not use the complicated steps to break the formation.
He simply lifted his foot and walked straight ahead.
The colorful poisonous miasma, powerful enough to kill an elephant in three seconds, retreated automatically to the sides when it got within half a meter of his body, as if encountering a king's subjects, making way for him in an absolutely safe passage.
The so-called Illusionary Killing Array didn't even cause a ripple.
Under the absolute suppression of the laws originating from the [Innate Yin-Yang Dao Body], the methods laid out by these ancient powerful beings have become utterly ineffective.
Su Bai strolled leisurely out of this desolate place, which others considered no different from hell.
When he stepped back onto the solid jungle ground, he paused slightly.
Not far ahead, the crackling sound of a campfire and suppressed conversation could be heard.
It was that "Trail Blazers" team.
They didn't leave.
Su Bai's figure appeared silently in the shadows of the forest, like a ghost, watching the group of survivors sitting around the campfire.
They are in very poor condition.
Almost everyone was injured, the atmosphere was somber, and everyone's face carried a sense of bewilderment at surviving a disaster and awe of the unknown forces.
Zhao Si, whose leg had been crippled by Su Bai, was simply bandaged and then left on the outermost edge like a dead dog, his eyes vacant, seemingly completely dumbfounded.
Captain Shi Lei was holding a whetstone, polishing his military dagger over and over again, his movements focused, but his eyes would occasionally glance toward the swamp.
"Captain, are we really going to have to wait here?"
Liu Fei, a female team member with a hot figure, finally couldn't help but speak, her voice carrying a hint of uncertainty.
"It's too dangerous here. Old Liu's injuries are severe. If we delay any longer, I'm afraid..."
Shi Lei stopped wiping the dagger.
He raised his head and glanced at Captain Liu, the earth-elemental ability user lying on the stretcher, his face pale and his breathing weak. A trace of pain and guilt flashed in his eyes.
"Wait one more day."
Shi Lei's voice was hoarse, but unusually firm.
"That senior... saved all of our lives."
"I don't even... know his name."
"We cannot simply accept this kindness without feeling guilty."
"and……"
Shi Lei's gaze swept over the team members around him, who were somewhat unsettled after witnessing the miracle, and he said in a deep voice.
Aren't you curious?
"What exactly is the power we pursue, the future we look forward to?"
"That senior has already shown us the answer."
"I must see him again, even if it's just... one more look."
His words silenced everyone.
Yes.
curious.
In awe.
There's still a sliver of... longing.
After witnessing that godlike finger strike, they began to doubt their own pitiful superpowers for the first time.
Is that really power?
Compared to that senior, they were like children who had just learned to play in the mud.
Just then, a calm voice rang out behind them without warning.
"You haven't left yet?"
"Whoosh—!"
Shi Lei's body tensed up to the extreme in an instant!
He turned around abruptly, gripping the dagger in a defensive stance, his muscles bulging all over his body!
The other team members reacted quickly, leaping up from the ground as if facing a formidable enemy!
This is an instinct ingrained in their bones as elite warriors.
However, the moment they saw who it was, all their imposing aura crumbled in an instant.
Shi Lei's hand, gripping the dagger, froze in mid-air. The expression on his face quickly shifted from extreme vigilance to extreme shock, and finally, to boundless excitement and awe.
"S-senpai!"
He hurriedly put away the dagger, then snapped his feet together, straightened his back, and gave the most standard and forceful military salute of his life to the black-clad youth who had appeared behind them at some unknown time!
"Reporting, senior! Shi Lei, captain of the Trail Blazers' Team Seven, is waiting here!"
Su Bai looked at him, her face expressionless.
He merely glanced at Captain Liu, who was lying on a stretcher, barely breathing.
Then, as if remembering something, he casually took out a small jade bottle from his storage equipment.
This is a healing pill that he casually refined with the Shennong Cauldron after leaving the secret realm, using a few rare spiritual herbs he picked along the way.
He originally intended to keep it for his loyal subordinates at the base.
"This is for you."
Su-Bai flicked his finger, and the jade bottle transformed into a streak of light, landing precisely in Shi Lei's hand.
"It will be useful for your injuries."
After saying that, he ignored the group and turned to leave. His figure flickered a few times and disappeared into the depths of the jungle.
He had no interest in having much interaction with these people.
He gave Shi Lei the pills simply because he admired Shi Lei's character and did so casually.
"senior!"
Shi Lei, holding the jade bottle that was still slightly warm, shouted anxiously.
"This junior dares to ask your esteemed name, senior?"
However, the only response he received was a faint voice echoing through the forest.
"We meet by chance, why bother with names?"
As the last word faded, Su Bai's figure had completely disappeared.
Shi Lei stood there, his hand outstretched, stunned, his face filled with disappointment.
"Captain... Captain, what... what is this?"
Liu Fei came closer, looking curiously at the jade bottle in Shi Lei's hand.
Shi Lei snapped out of his daze and carefully uncorked the bottle.
"Buzz—"
An indescribable, refreshing fragrance wafted from the bottle.
Just by smelling this fragrance, everyone present felt their fatigue from the past few days vanish and their spirits lifted!
"It smells so good!"
"My God, just smelling it makes my broken arm feel less painful!"
"Is...is this a miracle drug?"
The team members gasped in disbelief.
Shi Lei was deeply shaken.
With trembling hands, he poured out a pill the size of a longan, entirely emerald green, with a faint halo flowing across its surface.
Without the slightest hesitation, he strode to the stretcher, pried open Captain Liu's mouth, and stuffed the pill inside.
The elixir melts instantly upon entering the mouth.
next second.
Under the horrified gazes of everyone.
A miracle happened.
Liu's face, which was originally as pale as gold paper, turned rosy in a visible speed!
The sternum on his chest, which had collapsed due to the force of the pangolin's impact, made a series of crisp "crackling" sounds as it automatically returned to its original position!
His breathing, which was so faint it was almost gone, became steady and strong!
It only lasted a dozen seconds.
"Cough...cough cough..."
The seriously injured soldier, who had been deemed certain to die just a moment ago, coughed violently a few times, and then... slowly opened his eyes.
"Where...where am I...Captain?"
Team Leader Liu looked at his teammates, who were surrounding him as if they had seen a ghost, with a blank expression on his face.
The entire camp fell into absolute silence.
Everyone seemed frozen in place, staring blankly at Captain Liu, who was now able to sit up on his own, their minds completely blank.
for a long time.
for a long time.
Shi Lei suddenly came to his senses.
He glanced at the energetic Captain Liu, then at the jade bottle in his hand that still contained several pills.
With a "plop," he knelt down heavily in the direction where Su Bai had disappeared!
Then, he lowered his proud head, which had never bowed to anyone before, and kowtowed three times.
This bowing is not out of reverence.
It is a blessing to be reborn!
After doing all this, Shi Lei stood up.
He didn't say another word, but quickly walked to a corner of the camp and took out a palm-sized, oddly shaped black communication device.
He took a deep breath and pressed a red button on it.
"This is the Trail Blazers Team Seven, Captain Shi Lei, requesting emergency connection to... Dragon Shield Headquarters."
"Our unit encountered the Class B disaster source 'Golden Armored Pangolin' in the core area of Shennongjia, and the team is on the verge of annihilation."
"At the critical moment, a mysterious and powerful figure appeared..."
In an unprecedentedly solemn yet fervent tone, Shi Lei reported his entire experience of the trip, word for word.
"...One finger, instantly kills a Class B disaster source."
"...He casually bestowed upon her a elixir, bringing the dead back to life and restoring flesh to bones."
"His strength is immeasurable, and his methods are comparable to those of gods and demons."
"Based on its location and affinity with plants, I personally suggest naming it..."
"Shennong."
Little did he know the enormous waves his report would stir up in the distant capital.
Little did he know that his unintentional act brought Su Bai's name to the attention of the nation's highest law enforcement agency for the first time.
A storm surrounding "Shennong" is quietly brewing.
